Spoken

Long ago when the planet was created a mixture of physical elements and Potential energy combined to form the planet.

With the creation of the planet a consciousness emerged, a sort of superconsciousness which is the living language that creatures and organisms use to communicate with each other.

Every species have their own language(s). The superconsciousness is referred to as "The Spoken". Not everyone can communicate through The Spoken the same way not everyone can use the Potential, the stronger connection you have to it the more you can communicate and thus can only have a dialogue with anyone who has the ability to use the Potential, you can however understand anyone or anything regardless of their connection to the Potential.

The downfall with this is having to filter out what and when to hear things, it can lead to a sensory overload. Thus certain sentient species have constructed shrines on spots of particularly low concentration of Potential where they can get their minds purified and declustered from all the voices that they take in.

The Spoken is said to be sentient itself which is believed to be the cause of misunderstandings and miscommunications.

Just like there are spots of particularly low concentration of Potential, the other extreme exists which acts as a reversed radio station allowing anyone who is there to hear and communicate with anyone anywhere on the planet but can easily be overwhelming for the untrained.

Normally it sounds like a light background chatter. Low Potential hotspots sounds like spaced apart whispers and concentrated Potential hotspots sounds like everyone is speaking with a megaphone for the untrained.
